Ynys Enlli ("Island of the currents"), where flint tools and Iron Age settlement long predate the island's appropriation as a Christian centre and pilgrim destination.

Ynys Enlli (Bardsey Island) is top left – the prominent hill is the site of a prehistoric settlement and flint tools and workings have been found all over the island. Seen from Mynydd Penarfynydd to the northeast.
